# WAAP policies

WAAP comes with a set of default policy groups that enhance the security of your web applications by:

* Blocking malicious traffic and common attack patterns
* Preventing data breaches and unauthorized access to your domain
* Ensuring compliance with security standards
* Filtering suspicious IP addresses and bot traffic

You can customize WAAP behavior by enabling and disabling specific policies for better alignment with your workflows and security requirements.
